    Rupes iBrid

    I知 looking at getting myself a Rupes iBrid. Anyone have input with their experience on this tool? The long neck version is what I知 interested in.

    Any input, positive or negative would be appreciated.

    I love mine. I use it in every detail. I did order the long neck. I haven't need the longer neck yet. I actually wish I would have got the short neck. It would be easier to operate one handed. I haven't come across anyone yet who has actually needed the longer neck. I guess it you ever do need it having it would be a plus.

    It’s great for vents, door jambs, spoilers, bumpers, really anything your 3 inch polisher won’t reach. Works well for interiors too. I’ve got both the long and short neck and I have no real preference. The short neck is easier to maneuver on interiors.

    ^^ agree that it works great. I don't use my as often as others here but I do love it on wheels. I use a short neck version and have no issues. I use it more as a rotary vs a DA.

    Same here. I use the rotary mode a lot for wheels, exhaust tips, mirror caps and tight areas. The DA mode is also nice for pillars, bumpers and places the 3" can't reach. I have the long neck and have no complaints other than the cost of pads.

    You will wonder how you detailed without it. Is it pricey? Yes...but so worth it...
